There were various locations around the park where Catering stored things such as glassware, flatware, dinnerware, etc., for quick access instead of using the onsite warehouse. You had to prove your worth to work in Catering as there were many high-profile events and guests attending said events. I was in the Catering department, which hired from within. I used to work in a theme park in Southern Texas. This was back in the early 1990s when cell phones were just starting to become a thing and were still very expensive. Instead, I parked in the manager’s spot if my spot and all the free spots were taken and moved before she or the towing company got to work. Presumably, I was supposed to circle the parking lot all night. Me: “I guess I could take someone else’s parking spot and move in the morning.”Īpartment Manager: “You can’t park in other people’s spots.” Me: “This is an actual situation that happens. Me: “So, what do I do if it’s night and all the spots I’m allowed to take are occupied?”Īpartment Manager: “You can’t do anything.” Me: “But the towing company is closed at night.” I don’t remember how I handled that, but the next morning, I asked the apartment’s manager how I should handle that in the future.Īpartment Manager: “We can have the car towed.” Once, I got home to find that not only was my spot occupied, but so were all the free spots and guest spots. Sounds good, right? But people park in others’ spots anyway. The tenants all have assigned parking spots, and there are a few free spots and several guest parking spots. Receptionist: “We’ll figure something out. Would you mind repeating that you are saying that I need to come into work and be around babies while puking my guts out with a probably highly contagious illness?” I’m recording the rest of our conversation so there’s no confusion. I just want to make sure we’re both on the same page. I grab another device so I can start recording. Receptionist: “Ask someone to drive you in. Either get a doctor’s note or get to work.” I’ve been throwing up every hour since 2:00 am.” Me: “I understand, and I apologize for the short notice, but I am very unwell. Receptionist: *Sigh* “This is highly inconvenient. Me: “Hi,, I have the stomach bug, so I won’t be able to come in today.” I call the daycare as soon as they open to let them know I won’t be able to come in.

I wake up early in the morning with the stomach bug that’s been going around.
